After yesterday’s heavy rain we decided not to walk on tough terrain today rather chose country side for our walk with some light hiking on asphalt roads. It was cloudy with just a few light showers and temperature was perfect for a walk and especially going up hill.
While passing by the river we saw a duck who was desperately looking for his/her mate. It was just yesterday when we noticed this pair for the first time. The river is not flooding but the amount of water is none the less. The duck was making some sound but we could only hear the loud sound of the river. We stopped and watched this wonderful drama of hide and seek and were glad to see the happy ending. The river is full of fishes during this time of the year which might have brought this young couple to this place.
For Becca’s Sunday Trees and Jo’s Monday walk.
Thanks Rupali for talking me along this pleasant virtual walk amidst the scenic nature. Here it is still pretty hot.

The monsoon should soon be approaching though. I am sure it will bring relief.
Thanks for joining me.

Yes, for the first time we’ve gone below 19c, so a bit of a body shock.

Yes we all are happy for the ending.
The gesture of the duck and the way he was making sounds showing his situtations. The river was not helping him in any ways with the strong waves and large sound. Still the little hero won.

great shots, it still looks like a very steep slope, nothing flat there! Glad the ducks found each other 🙂

Thanks Kate.
You are right, nothing is flat and atleast we didn’t follow terrian paths to reach the top of mountains. Still we climbed almost 400 m altitude in 4.5 km distance.
